If you have a whole catfish, clean it and rinse well. Remove the skin and backbone and slice into steaks. Season the slices with salt and lemon juice and refrigerate in covered container 1 hour.

Place in shallow pan, brush generously with butter, and bake in 350 degree Fahrenheit oven 30-40 min. or until fully cooked. Drench with 1/2 cup fork-blended sour cream and bake another 5 minutes. Serve with potatoes and sauerkraut salad.

Note: Catfish is also very good sprinkled with fish seasoning, dredged in flour, or breaded and fried.
